To his left, a pair of cars were compressed together, almost as if they were hit by a runaway train. The rest of his view was normal, untouched. Except for the fact that there was nobody, alive or dead, roaming the streets.

Jared made his way around the driveway. As he approached the corner of the house, a hand reached over and grabbed him. Jared swung around, gasping. He took a deep breath, calming down. It was Emily. “What are you doing outside?”

“I’m not staying inside alone.”

“I told you to stay put.”

“Forget it. I’m sticking by your side. Where is everyone?”

“Good question.”

Emily covered her mouth in fear once they turned the corner. A corpse lay in a pool of blood mid-way down the driveway. She clung to Jared like a magnet. “Is he dead?” Emily stuttered.

“Stay close.”

Jared and Emily took precarious steps towards the corpse. As they neared closer, the smell was horrendous. Both had to cover their noses.

Jared knelt down by the corpse.

“What are you doing?” Emily asked, nervously.

“Making sure the guy’s dead.” Jared squinted. “Something isn’t right.” His eyes widened, “Emily, we need to get out of here.”

The corpse moaned and grunted. It turned its head to them, teeth showing, ready to bite. The corpse lunged at Emily, taking her down and twisting her ankle in the process. “Ah!” Emily screamed. She held its face back. Desperately it attempted to gnaw a good chunk of her skin off.

“Get off her!” Jared yelled. He latched himself onto the corpse and flung it off Emily. It thudded against the ground.

He grabbed her by the hands, helping her to her feet. “Are you okay?”

“Yeah, just a sprain, I think,” she said, feeling the sting of a knife poking the inside of her ankle.

The corpse crawled to its feet. “We need to go, now,” Jared hurried.

With her arm wrapped around him, Jared led Emily back up the driveway, only to be stopped by another zombie in their way. “Shit…”

The two zombies backed Emily and Jared against the fence.

No matter what, Emily, I will always be there for you. Those words rapidly ran through his mind—and hers—as the zombies closed in on them.
